1968+ Mk2 for lights, bumper and top-hinged number plate mounting (which also looks modified for US/CDN). Smells Cooper or probably Cooper S (I think 2 filler caps visible), and could be Austin or Morris (but not Mini as make in Mk2 era). Problem - AFAIK no Mk2 Minis of any type sold in US due to 68+ safety and emissions restrictions; however they did continue in CDN, so this might be a CDN import (or a personal import from anywhere else). So I'll enter ID as Austin Cooper S from CDN as best guess. |

A possible explanation why this was included in Clint's 1st film as director is that he owned a dark green "Morris Mini Countryman" fitted with the oily bits from a Cooper S 1275. |
